| Obverse description | Large draped bust of Sigismund III Vasa facing right, wearing a royal crown and a ruffled collar characteristic of late 16th-century court attire. The effigy is rendered in high relief with curling hair visible beneath the crown. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, separated from the bust by a beaded inner border. The portraiture style is typical of hammered Polish coinage of the period, with bold, slightly crude execution consistent with the Olkusz mint. |
